About this project

Word of the Week – About this project


Our Healing Tree has become very popular and full of significances. It seems to mean many different things for different groups of people. But as much as the metaphor of the Healing Tree, the words are always the same words.

Everyone can see these same words, but they can also take on different meanings depending on the angle we look at them. We thought it would be great to dissect and analyze each word, as a group project; us and anyone else comfortable with leaving their opinions and comments.

We have a total of 27 words that we are going to discuss. This page will always be here and will be updated after we jump to the next word.
